Climate Change – it’s real, and deadly serious

As part of the blog I want to focus on you, the reader, getting a healthy mind and body, and sharing tips on how I do the same. However, all the spirulina digesting and yoga practicing in the world is going to be fruitless unless we all start taking some positive action towards saving the planet.

Ban Ki-Moon, Seceratary General of the United Nations sums it up thus:

“Climate change is the single greatest threat to a sustainable future but, at the same time, addressing the climate challenge presents a golden opportunity to promote prosperity, security and a brighter future for all.”

This is a real problem, and action is needed by everyone, NOW.

I implore you – watch this movie, and more importantly, if you have them, make your children watch this movie, and then sign up to show your support.

Research at Standford and other major universities is showing that we can in fact quickly transition to 100% clean, renewable energy by 2050 making fossil fuels obsolete. When we stop burning fossil fuels the climate will gradually cool off again. It may take a bit of time to get back to a stable climate, but if we act now we can do it.

Write to your goverment representative asking them to support using alternative energy sources, eat less red meat and diary, offset your carbon emissions (if you live in the US this is live here) just do whatever you feel is going to make a postitive impact on the rest of your life, and the lives of our future generations. But please do something. If you can’t change the world – change yourself.
